Hello,
This is SM Entertainment.
We are providing an update on the legal action being taken in response to infringements of our artist Yoona (Lim Yoona)'s rights.
We have confirmed that false information, malicious slander, defamation, and other infringing posts regarding Yoona (Lim Yoona) are being published and circulated, through continuous monitoring and reports from fans via KWANGYA 119. We have already filed a criminal complaint and requested cooperation with the investigation.
We are taking all possible legal actions—both civil and criminal—against any illegal behavior that uses not only the artist’s real name but also initials, nicknames, or any wording that implies the artist’s identity. We will respond firmly without any leniency or settlement.
Creating or spreading unverified rumors, malicious posts, or videos is clearly illegal. We urge the public to refrain from writing or distributing indiscriminate malicious content about our artist, and to be careful not to become involved in any unlawful acts.
We will continue to do our utmost to protect the rights and interests of our artists.
Thank you.
